The visit to Malvern Town was after the 1-0 win at Bristol Rovers (not surprised Kosi got it wrong, pissed was not the word!) My wife laid on free sausage sarnies and beefburgers, I did the karaoke/disco and there was a complimentary sambuka on our arrival. The locals had a passing interest in Town cos of the Bully thing, but to this very day they follow our results and have a Town flag that was left behind, on the wall of the dressing room. Unfortunately Bully was out of the country that week and was absent. 3 things will be with me forever regarding that night. 1 Shortbread Pete on the karaoke to SId Vicious 2 the club sending out to the off licence twice for more bottles of spirits( the place was literally drunk dry) 3 the absolute pride I felt, and still feel, about that night and our behaviour. The committee took some persuading to allow a 52 seater full of football fans into our small club..... They didn't regret a single moment. If anyone gets to Worcester after all this going on, Bully drinks in The Vaults, The Midland or the Postal Order. Cracking day out that and a fantastic evening...made more fun having to drink whatever the club had left after the pumps had been drunk dry...decent dj too

Has to be up there. Definitely more of a high than the final. And all finals probably I was in my first year at university in Liverpool (sorry Porrohman π). Pre mobile phones and no live commentary that I could receive on a radio. I didn't dare ring my dad to find out the result so decided to wait until the 10:30 sports report on Radio 5 to find out what had happened. Brilliant night after that. No problem mate, I hope you put your degree in shellsuits, benefit fraud and going "on the rob" to good use πππ

Thoroughly enjoyable watch/listen. I was going to watch it in two sittings but ended up watching the whole thing in one go as I was so engrossed. Special memories of two memorable nights, Carlisle away as I don't think that 11 minutes has ever lasted so long or felt so tense and Brentford was just a special special night that I feel truly honoured to have been a small part of.

Re Carlisle Bully retold it just as I remembered it. It was right in front of me. Bully ploughed into the lad in a straight red sort of way. Already on a booking he then instantly threw himself to the ground and joined the opposition player in rolling around in agony. Knowing that was the only chance he had of evading the red card.

I don't remember much about the specifics of that match other than the fact we were absolutely battered by Carlisle and the gut-wrenching stoppage time. On the night we likened it to Back to the Future where the images on photos begin to change as events happen and we could see the twin towers fading further and further away the longer the game went on. Compared to the the final was a bit of a disappointment. Can't wait for the Diakhabi and Mbenza double header in the Town Legends podcast. Shouldn't be long, just after the Kwami Hdoutu special.

Thanks a lot for putting that up.
What a ledge Bully is. Funny bloke.
Living not too far from Worcester I might hunt him down in one of those boozers after the lockdown.
Imagine him Micky Kennedy in the same side!!
